Scope
In this case study
What is Siegen and what did the website need?
Siegen is a brand of gun cabinets and gun drawers sold by Inter Sicherheits Service Sp. z o.o. from Gorzów Wielkopolski. The range includes cabinets for long guns, cabinets with a long-gun partition, cabinets for handguns and gun drawers – with key or electronic locks. The cabinets have class S1 to EN 14450, certified by IMP, and the Siegen Super series has, among other things, interior lighting, adjustable gun holders and perforated walls for hanging containers.
Each model comes in several variants that differ in dimensions, weight and number of gun holders, and the brand reaches customers in several countries. So the website had to work as a catalogue: lead to the right category, find a model quickly by name or number, compare variants and download documents – in 5 languages.
Challenge: dozens of variants, certificates and 5 languages
Many models, even more variants
The main menu leads to 4 categories, and the model page shows all its variants – for Siegen MAX KOMBI S1 IMP that is 8 cabinets, with dimensions and weight shown on hover.
Customers often know the number, not the name
After the first three characters, the search in the header suggests matching models together with their catalogue numbers, e.g. "SIEGEN MAX KOMBI S1 IMP 500081.50".
The same range for several markets
The website has 5 language versions – PL, IT, DE, EN and ES – with translated page addresses, e.g. /de/siegen-fuer-langwaffen or /it/siegen-per-armi-lunghe.
Certificates must be at hand
S1 class and certification pictograms are shown with every model, each model page has a downloads tab with the technical sheet and certificate, and the downloads section on the home page brings together 10 files, including the catalogue.
The inside of a cabinet is hard to describe in words
A practical solutions section describes the cargo part, the hidden compartment, door containers and wall perforation next to a large photo of the interior, with product films embedded below.
Solution: key features
Main menu with 4 categories
Hovering over the safes menu opens a list of 4 categories: cabinets for long guns, cabinets with a long-gun partition, cabinets for handguns and gun drawers. The other menu items lead to sections of the home page: practical solutions, bestsellers and downloads.
Search by model and catalogue number
The magnifier icon opens a full-width red search bar. After just three characters a list of matching models with catalogue numbers appears below the field, so a distributor or a customer with a number from the catalogue goes straight to the right page.
Model page: technical data, gallery and tabs
The model page opens with a photo gallery, the catalogue number, certification pictograms and a table with external and internal dimensions, door opening dimensions, weight, number of shelves and gun holders, and RAL colours. Below are three tabs: product description, standard equipment and downloads with the technical sheet and certificate.
Model variants with dimensions on hover
All variants of a model are shown as tiles below its description. On hover a tile shows the external dimensions and weight of the variant and an arrow to its page, and switches above the list filter by height, width and number of gun holders.
5 language versions
The switch in the header leads to the PL, IT, DE, EN or ES version of the same page. Each version has its own translated category addresses, so the website can rank in search engines in each language.
Easy to use on a phone
On a phone the menu hides under an icon, and the language switch and search stay in the header. Categories line up in one column, and the Siegen Super series and practical solutions sections show photos above the text.
